Latest 'Final Fantasy' may be Sony PS3's final chance

Sun, 20 Dec 2009 05:18:57 GMT

Can active time battles, characters called "Lightning" and "Snow", and a convoluted story set in the fantasy world of Pulse turn round Sony's PlayStation 3?

With the launch of Final Fantasy 13 in Japan yesterday (from publisher Square Enix) Sony has entered a crucial period that will seal the PS3's fate.

Final Fantasy is one of Japan's most popular games and in the domestic market number 13 will only be available on PS3. Analysts think that 500,000 Japanese households may buy a Sony console just to play it. The PS3 has lagged well behind Nintendo's Wii and Sony urgently needs to sell more consoles if it is to profit from subsequent software sales.

It now has a chance.

T3's Artist Concept for the PS3 Motion controller

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 23:25:49 GMT

T3: PS3 fans, do we have a visual treat for you...

"With much of the gaming world looking to 2010 as the landing date of Microsoft's gaming revolution Project Natal, it's easy to forget that rival Sony is also preparing its own Wii-inspired motion control device - the PS3 Motion controller.

Expected to launch in Spring 2010, Sony has (unsurprisingly) tried to keep details of the PS3 Motion controller under wraps, and aside from an EA executive inadvertently spurting out 'Gem' as its probable codename, they've made a very good job of keeping those vital specs a secret.

However, in true T3 style, we couldn't help but flex our visionary powers once more to conjure up what we think the 'Gem' could end up looking like. Calling on the help of our creative design friends at The Alloy (who helped bring the 01 Phone and Netpad to life), we've now realised our own take on Sony's PS3 motion controller."

Final Fantasy XIII sells 1 Million on First Day

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 07:15:29 GMT

The day it was released has sold 100 million copies of Final Fantasy XIII PS3 exclusive software ? EDIT: The site means to say 1 million. In the Original Japanese webpage it says 100 man which essentially translates as "100 units of 10,000". So the 100 million is a translation error of Google Translate *

Sony Owned 2009, Will Own 2010 and 2011: Exclusives Galore (Year End Articles)

Thu, 24 Dec 2009 11:03:57 GMT

Just when you thought the hardware giant from the land of the rising sun shot all their bullets in 2009, they've reloaded and are ready to rumble yet again in 2010. Looking back at the year that was, (2009 is almost out), one would think Sony played all its cards: Redesigned PS3 Slim, new price point, Killzone 2, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and a PSN overhaul just to name a few. The team at Sony's PlayStation division practically outdid themselves this year. Aaron Greenberg might be talking about 2010 as a better year than 2009 for the Xbox 360 and rightfully so, 360's lineup was weak; Sony owned 2009. But the bigger story is that they're set to do it all over again in 2010. In fact they've got it bagged already, and 2011 looks even more promising. Let's examine the situation.

Where Are the Xbox 3, Playstation 4 And Wii 2?

Did you realize that the Xbox 360 is now four-years-old? I sure didn't until recently, and that got me to wondering just when might we start seeing the next generation of gaming consoles roll out.
